The creationists and hollow earthers have their books too. And you know nothing about argument. It is not a logical fallacy to insult someone, it is only ad hominem if you claim that some (purported) insulting characteristic invalidates your opponent's argument.

I was referring to this:
Originally posted by lpetrich I think that we ought to introduce Totalitarianist to the Holocaust deniers and to the defenders of Biblical genocide. You: I think we ought to dismiss the above as ad hominem. That is definately *not* an ad hominem. The fact that you thought it was is good evidence, in my opinion, that you don't know what you're talking about. Since you think Stalin was such a nice guy, why not quit the chit-chat and outline for us some of these wonderful things you suppose him to have done. |

Having read the introduction to Zinoviev's book that initiated this thread, I find it nothing more than a standard defense of Stalin containing all the old shit.
If you, Totalitarianist, continue, I'll take you on. I don't believe you have been confronted by a seasoned Marxist who is also an anti-Stalinist. RED DAVE |
